Research on Women Entrepreneurs: Challenges to (and from) the Broader Entrepreneurship Literature?
梳理女性创业研究的发展,评估其对主流创业文献的贡献,并探讨主流文献对女性创业研究的挑战与机遇,采用多元视角分析两者间的相互影响。
This paper has three overarching objectives. The first is to document the development of the body of work known as women's entrepreneurship research. The second is to assess the contributions of this work, specifically vis-à-vis the broader entrepreneurship literature. The third is to discuss how this broader literature poses challenges (both difficulties as well as opportunities) for scholarship on female entrepreneurs. We approach these objectives from the standpoint of informed pluralism, seeking to explore whether and how women's entrepreneurship research offers extensions to—and can be extended by—general research on entrepreneurs and their ventures.
